Welcome

Off to Liverpool for the 2016 meeting, for the first time since - well, does anyone know? Certainly for the first time in the Society's current incarnation as the Bone Research Society.

BRS meetings are renowned for their friendly atmosphere and networking opportunities, as well as their high quality and exciting science. The 2016 meeting will feature a broad-ranging programme with sessions on:

Biomarkers

Cancer and bone

Cartilage-bone interactions

Clinical cases

Debate: In the absence of osteoporosis … “The drugs don’t work”

Endocrinology of bone and other musculoskeletal diseases

Clinical gait analysis

Imaging

Metabolomics

Muscle-bone interactions

Rare bone diseases

Stem cells

Vitamin D

For the first time the Society will be embarking on some public engagement activities with the aim of educating local school children and others about the world of musculoskeletal diseases, with a schools' programme on the first day, and a public session on the last.

We hope you will submit your work for inclusion in this exciting programme and look forward to seeing you at the meeting!
